Desalination and Water Treatment

Desalination and Water Treatment is in the process of changing its publishing arrangements for 2017. From January 2017, the Journal will be solely published by Desalination Publications. All queries should be directed to the DWT Editorial Office ( deswaterjournal@gmail.com) from 30 November 2016. Due to the galloping growth of the desalination field to help supply water to an exploding active thirsty population, there has been a surge in the number of scientists and engineers involved in water desalting and wastewater reclamation. Following this growth, there has been a flood of papers from scientists and engineers, academia, government and industry from all regions of the world recording results of work in the lab or from operation of plants flowing into the editorial office from about 100 countries. This information needs to be disseminated promptly and widely to the expanding desalination and water community as it is constantly advancing and changing. New ideas are often presented at conferences attended by few. Peer reviewed papers are conveyed through the journal. There is a need to extend the coverage to accommodate additional selected papers promptly. We are ready to meet this challenge with this new publication. Desalination and Water Treatment is dedicated to research and application of desalination technology, environment and energy considerations, integrated water management, water reuse, wastewater and related topics. We are turning to main players in the field to support the venture by participating in the publication and subscribing to the new journal in electronic and print form. Peer Review Statement Desalination and Water Treatment is an international, ranked, peer-reviewed journal which publishes original research contributions to scientific knowledge. All manuscript submissions are subject to initial appraisal by the Editor, and, if found suitable for further consideration, to peer review by independent, anonymous expert referees.
